• The Mad Scientist Behind Wild Business Models — Ep. 7
    Nov 26 2025

    Business, entrepreneurship, online business ideas, and money — that’s where this conversation with Nick Eubanks lives. Nick is the Vice President of Owned Media @ Semrush and one of the sharpest operators in the business world.


    In this episode, Nick unpacks how he thinks, why he spots business models no one else sees, and how a simple mindset shift turned into a $100K per month opportunity. If you’re obsessed with entrepreneurship, this is one of those rare conversations that snaps your brain into a higher gear.


    Nick walks through the money traumas entrepreneurs don’t admit, the weird niches he's fascinated by, how he steals proven business models from one industry and ports them into another, and why every talk with him leaves us feeling like we’re not doing enough. This is pure operator-to-operator energy. No guru fluff, no theory, just how real business thinkers see the world.


    If you like smart people thinking out loud about business, this is as close to a cheat code as it gets.

  • How We’re Actually Going to Grow This Podcast — Ep. 6
    Nov 24 2025

    Business, entrepreneurship, audience growth, and pure operator chaos. In this episode, Ben and Jon sit down and map out how they plan to grow Low Bar Podcast, from the smartest ideas to the dumbest experiments they’re absolutely going to try anyway. This is not advice. It is two friends openly scheming about how to take a show from “good” to “everywhere.”


    They talk through paid ads, referral loops, niche content traps, algorithm bets, wild format ideas, the stuff they know will work, the stuff they know probably won’t, and the things they want to try just because it sounds fun. If you’ve ever wondered what the inside of a creator strategy meeting actually sounds like when nobody is pretending to be a guru, this is it.


    This episode is honest, unserious, and full of real operator thinking. Nothing polished. Nothing staged. Just the actual plan to grow the show you’re watching.

  • Where's Your Ethical Bar in Business? — Ep. 5
    Nov 19 2025

    Business, entrepreneurship, money, and ethics collide when Ben and Jon break down where successful entrepreneurs actually draw the line in their business decisions. This conversation is raw, direct, and loaded with real world examples people never admit publicly.


    From OnlyFans challenges to overseas labor, nothing is off limits. This is not moral posturing. It is two entrepreneurs walking through the decisions real founders face and the ethical bar they set for themselves in business.


    What would you do for money? What wouldn’t you do even if the market rewarded it? And where does the idea of ethics even come from when every entrepreneur is constantly balancing incentives, responsibility, family, risk, and survival?


    This episode is a deep dive into how operators think about the gray areas, what they refuse to touch, and what they believe is fair game in the real world of entrepreneurship.

  • The Untapped Business Hiding in Costco’s Returns — Ep. 4
    Nov 17 2025

    Liquidation flipping is one of the simplest online business models most people overlook. In this episode, Ben Knegendorf and Jon Warren sit down with Shannon Jean — a serial entrepreneur who’s built multiple seven figure businesses and now dominates the liquidation and closeout game.


    Shannon breaks down the entire process step by step: how liquidation auctions actually work, where to find deals from retailers like Costco and Target, how to price inventory using data (not emotion), and why “boring products” often make the most money. He also shares real examples from his mastermind — including people turning $2K into $10K flips and building six-figure resale operations from their garages.


    Whether you’re in ecommerce, dropshipping, or just want to build a scrappy side business, this episode is a crash course in turning excess inventory into cash.


    Business is simple. People are lazy.

  • We Tried the PDF Business Everyone’s Talking About — Ep. 3
    Nov 12 2025

    Everyone online is suddenly selling PDFs and calling it “digital dropshipping.”

    Supposedly, people are making $4,000 a day selling AI written guides, Notion templates, and checklists. So we decided to pull it apart and see what’s actually real.

    Ben and Jon break down how this trend started, who’s really making money, and why “digital dropshipping” is just the same old info business wearing new clothes. They build and price out their own PDF products live, debate if the margins are worth the hype, and pick which idea they’d actually launch to test it.

    No fluff, no gurus, no screenshots of Stripe accounts — just two operators figuring out if this new wave of online business is legit or nonsense.

  • This Guy Gambles $100 a Day and Accidentally Built a Business — Ep. 2
    Nov 10 2025

    We found a guy making content in five minutes a day that averages 250K views per short.


    He’s betting $100 every single day — blackjack, scratch offs, sports bets, prediction markets — and somehow built an audience that’s worth way more than the money on the table.


    Ben and Jon break down why the gambling isn’t the business, the audience is, and how “The Casino King” created a perfect daily content loop.


    Then Ben unveils his SWEAT Framework — Stakes, Wrapped, Effortless, Audience driven, Trackable — the five part system behind viral short form content.


    From $100 flips and one minute SEO challenges to a public “Ask for a Discount” confidence series, they dissect what makes content addictive and what ideas could actually work in real life.

  • He Makes $100K a Year Selling Camel Meat Online (Genius or Insane?) — Ep. 1
    Nov 10 2025

    A guy is making $10K a month selling camel meat online. 63% margins, no ads, and wild products like ostrich and kangaroo. Ben and Jon break it down and ask the question: Is this insane, or one of the smartest ecommerce niches we have ever seen?


    They dive into how strange ideas like this actually work, from supply chains to marketing psychology, and why going deep into a weird niche often beats chasing broad trends.


    Then they find a print on demand candle business doing 76% margins in 10 hours a week. B2B candles, subscription boxes, and a few ideas that probably should not exist but somehow make real money.


    Would we buy them? How would we grow them? What is the real play here?


    Business is simple. People are lazy. The bar could not be lower.
